Wow the Ps3 is really going to be powerfull for its price. It can beat any pc between 1000 and 2000 dollars. Its amazing, I wonder if you could use it as a pc somehow. It would be the fastest pc at this time. It will totally be worth twice as much as the xbox. But im still sticking to nintendo wii since I will be able to play a lot more games and keep some change in my wallet.

Xbox 360 Arcade
review for the X360 arcade (1) 1. Xbox 360 console built on new processor, this runs much cooler, quicker than the standard
processor for the Xbox 360 premium, which are to this day prone to overheating known as the ring of
fire Or in other words Hardware failure meaning they have to be sent back to Microsoft for repairs,
although Premium 360s built end of 2007 onwards have been built using newer 60/65nm processor
chipset. 2. Wireless Controller included, exactly the same as whats included with the £250 Premium
package. 3. Standard AV cable, exactly the same as whats included with the £250 Premium pac....

people? Well in my opinion the xbox 360 is going to do a great job. They are coming out near
christmas time which would make a great gift. The games that are coming out wil blow away alot of
the competion. Elder Scrolls: Oblivion will by far be the most popular game for the xbox 360 once
that hits the stores. Once the ps3 comes out i dont expect to see that great of an im....

Best Xbox Game?
Vote for the best XBox Game here! (29) My vote is for Halo 2. I mean, I would vote for Halo; except I believe that the new features and
weapons and vehicles, etc. that is in Halo 2 is a lot better than those of the first of the Halo
Series. The mulitplayer in Halo 2 is THE BEST. Banshees in multiplayer, many fun levels, XBox Live
PLAY! In my opinion, Halo 2 truly IS, the BEST GAME EVER.....
